Meh, the way I look at it they've just motivated a LOT of people to move off their services and also jailbreak their devices.

Seems like a good time to acquire old devices too.

Indeed they have. Hopefully this will be the tip of the iceberg for a lot of people too.

As an old PaperWhite owner with no loyalty to Amazon, anywhere I can find a jailbreaking guide?

[–] muhyb@programming.dev 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

While not having PaperWhite this was the guide I used. Though be careful if you have firmware version 5.15.1.1 or later, you might need to downgrade first. And don't rush anything. Good luck!

I personally wouldnt bother with the jail breaking if you can. Ive had good results just putting mine on airplane mode and using Calibre to manage my library.

That’s what I do now, so it would probably just be a fun project for me to see if I can do the jailbreak

I like your optimism.

Most people will never even figure out jailbreaking is even an option, let alone actually do it. They'll just buy a new Kindle
